Description Recently, we reported the genome-wide identification of 107
homeobox genes in rice and classified them into ten distinct
subfamilies based upon their domain composition and phylogenetic analysis. Microarray analysis revealed the tissue-specific and
overlapping expression profiles of these genes during various stages
of floral transition, panicle development and seed set. Several
homeobox genes were also found to be differentially expressed
under abiotic stress conditions. Based on massively parallel signature sequencing (MPSS) data analysis, we report here that a large
number of small RNA signatures are associated with rice homeobox
genes, which may be involved in their tissue-specific/developmental regulation and stress responses. The association of a very
large number of small RNA signatures suggested an unusually high
degree of regulation of homeobox genes by small RNAs during
inflorescence development.
